The inescapable Muslimgauze classic, finally available again after 25 years! Originally released on the obscure French label T.4 back in 1994, 'Al-Zulfiquar Shaheed' stands out as a major long lost showcase of the glorious early to mid-'90s Muslimgauze period. Four intoxicating suites showcasing Bryn Jones' ability to create lengthy, slow burning and detailed compositions soaked with trance inducing percussive impetus and beautiful -never again to be reproduced- middle eastern atmospheres.
Recorded at the legendary Abraham Mosque in Manchester, the album was carefully remastered by Anders Peterson and is lavishly assembled in our custom 6-panel digisleeve packaging. Artwork by Oleg Galay.
